[pelblog] Sunday Is Fun Day; swimming
lots of folks take sunday off. yesterday, with the weather as hot and sticky as it was, we hung out on Shack deck again and reveled in the breeze and the bright sun. you're not really supposed to go swimming anywhere but the swimming beach (which is on the harbor side and protected by the pier). but most of us know a couple of good spots to go in, depending on the tides, and there's one near Shack deck that was just too tempting yesterday.
still, 50-something degree saltwater will get your heart started right quick.
i worked yesterday, but it was mostly desk shifts. in the evening, i was the "runner" for any fire alarms. some folks got a 4v4 game of basketball going, which i joined in... our game to 10 points, win-by-two, went to 12-12 and showed no signs of letting up before dinner. which was when i stepped on somebody's foot and rolled my right ankle really hard. was i wearing my ankle brace? no, duh. it's nothing i haven't done a million times before, but staying completely off it will be difficult this week. fortunately, any time i feel like i want to ice it, i can just go dunk it in the ocean :)
